If you were a robloxian in 2007, 2008, 2010 or whatever, you'd know that oh my god Reason2Die was the best game for gosh dang anyone. It was a short game that you played for as long as you wanted(which is how every game ever should be). It was fun, suspenseful, and just a joy to play. The best thing about it at the time was, again, it was JUST for fun, nothing else besides generating some currency for the creator, which is fine.

Then there was silence for a about 4 years, as PlaceRebuilder practically deleted the game and made it "open source" for the community. So yeah, nobody did ANYTHING with the source and it was a boring 4 years. Sure, a few clones came in and did literally nothing, but it just didn't give anybody the magic that R2D had. Everything sucked for me for 4 years straight.

Then, after my 2-3 year silence, I decide to check out this place and what do you know? R2D is making a return...in..."alpha". Oh god that word puts a bad taste in my mouth I'll tell you that much. I was happy- VERY happy to see the game back, on the front page if you will, but ALPHA? I was unsure, but hey how bad can it be?

Bad.

I was sad.

I'm a poet and I didn't know-

Okay maybe it wasn't "BAD" but I expected the magic to come back, I wanted it SO badly. All those maps from 4 years ago, back to give me so much nostalgia. So what was it?

The bane of all my enjoyment when it comes to free 2 play games, that's what it was. In game CASH. Buyable guns. Buyable items, weapons, EVERYTHING. All cash generates from kills, INSTANTLY making this game a boring, repetitive grind for me. ONLY ONE ORIGINAL MAP FROM THE PREVIOUS GAME MADE IT IN. Let me go back to the alpha thing. Slapping on the term alpha for a game is fine and all, especially if you want help for development, but this just makes the game feel like it can get away with unpolished and sloppily done elements. Animations are nice, and guns feel nice, but shouldn't all that be done LATER? It should NOT be the main focus, especially when there's LOADS of bugs and bad designs splattered everywhere.

I'm done. This review was a mess and I was angry and tired. I just had to get this off my chest.
